    Analysis of B. longum subsp infantis strains secreted fermentative endproducts while utilizing milk carbohydrates. Panel (A) shows metabolites secreted by B. infantis strains for each carbohydrate clustered by Euclidean distance calculated with MetaboAnalyst 3.0. The scaling was performed by mean-centering and dividing by the standard deviation of each metabolite. The red denotes lower concentrations of the metabolite with yellow approaching higher concentrations. Panels (B,E) display the 2D-principal component analysis (PCA) plot depicting acetic acid to lactic acid ratios and acetic acid to lactic acid to formic acid ratios respectively. The arrows in PCA plot represent the correlation of the variables with the principal components (PC1 and PC2). Points represent the scores of each component grouped as biological replicates. The ellipses for each strain incorporate 68% of the normal probability of the scores for corresponding strains. Panels (C,F) are hierarchical clustering dendrogram of strains according to acetic acid to lactic acid ratios and acetic acid to lactic acid to formic acid ratios using the Ward method and Euclidean distance. The y-axis measures the closeness of either individual strains or their calculated clusters. Panels (D,G) represent hierarchical clustering based on p -values calculated with multiscale bootstrapping between acetic acid to lactic acid ratio and acetic acid to lactic acid to formic acid ratio. The y-axis measures the closeness of either individual substrates or clusters according to two metrics: Approximately Unbiased p -value (AU in red) and Bootstrap Probability value (BP in blue). Clusters exhibiting AU values >95% are highlighted by rectangles.

    Figure Lengend Snippet: Analysis of B. longum subsp infantis strains secreted fermentative endproducts while utilizing milk carbohydrates. Panel (A) shows metabolites secreted by B. infantis strains for each carbohydrate clustered by Euclidean distance calculated with MetaboAnalyst 3.0. The scaling was performed by mean-centering and dividing by the standard deviation of each metabolite. The red denotes lower concentrations of the metabolite with yellow approaching higher concentrations. Panels (B,E) display the 2D-principal component analysis (PCA) plot depicting acetic acid to lactic acid ratios and acetic acid to lactic acid to formic acid ratios respectively. The arrows in PCA plot represent the correlation of the variables with the principal components (PC1 and PC2). Points represent the scores of each component grouped as biological replicates. The ellipses for each strain incorporate 68% of the normal probability of the scores for corresponding strains. Panels (C,F) are hierarchical clustering dendrogram of strains according to acetic acid to lactic acid ratios and acetic acid to lactic acid to formic acid ratios using the Ward method and Euclidean distance. The y-axis measures the closeness of either individual strains or their calculated clusters. Panels (D,G) represent hierarchical clustering based on p -values calculated with multiscale bootstrapping between acetic acid to lactic acid ratio and acetic acid to lactic acid to formic acid ratio. The y-axis measures the closeness of either individual substrates or clusters according to two metrics: Approximately Unbiased p -value (AU in red) and Bootstrap Probability value (BP in blue). Clusters exhibiting AU values >95% are highlighted by rectangles.

    Endproduct ratios of B. longum subsp. infantis strain fermentative endproducts while utilizing the milk carbohydrates. Acetic acid to lactic acid ratio (A) , acetic acid to lactic acid to formic acid ratio (B) , and ethanol to lactic acid ratio (C) . Colors indicate the following carbohydrate substrates: Purple, galactose; red, lactose; dark blue, lacto- N -tetraose; green, lacto- N -neotetraose. Averages from independent biological replicates (at least triplicate) are shown with bars representing standard deviation from the mean. The asterisks indicate the significant differences evaluated by two-way ANOVA and Tukey's multiple comparison. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.005, *** p < 0.0005, and **** p < 0.0001.

    Gene expression of inflammatory marker Interleukin-8 in Caco-2 epithelial cells exposed to spent media following milk oligosaccharide fermentation. The y-axis represents the fold change in IL-8 expression relative to phosphate buffer solution (PBS). The x-axis depicts the sources of B. infantis metabolites which are used to treat Caco-2 cells after lipopolysaccharides (LPS) induction. The error bars show standard deviations of biological duplicates, each measured with three technical replicates. The single asterisks (*) indicate the significant differences evaluated by one-way ANOVA and Tukey's multiple comparison ( p < 0.05).
